Son Of Chaos 20 Training

"Hey, could I get a training room for my student?", Van Bergen asked the man standing at the counter and handed over a card.

"Yes, Lord Van Bergen, you are eligible for one training room rank F for a student. Do you want to give your student permanent access or a number of hours per month or week?"

"Give him permanent access please."

"Alright, please wait a while until the card is made."

They didn't have to wait long since it only took a few minutes before someone came in from a side room with the card.

"Here you go. If you take out this card and put it near the portal you can then use it to enter the training room.", the man smiled friendly towards Ivan and gave him the card.

The card was in a plain black with only his name engraved in Gold, which created an elegant look.

"Since you got the card here I guess you don't know about the other uses of it, right?", the man asked in a friendly tone.

Ivan nodded a bit embra.s.sed, "Yes, I don't."

"No problem. Let me explain it for you then.

This card can be used to access some facilities of the Alliance like this training rooms or the stables, but the most important use is as a storage device for your credits. Even though you can always check your credits on your inventory interface it sadly is to complex to make payments through the interface without using a intermediate tool, so the card will fulfill this function."

"Oh, thank you for the explanation."

"No worry, its my job and besides it's quite boring here."

"Ok lets get going.", Van Bergen said and moved in front of the portal grabbing Ivans shoulder to pull him along.

"If you touch the person with the person with the card, you can enter together with him.", he explained and then pulled him through the portal.

When they left the portal they found themself in a small room with a gate leading into a room which seemed much larger. Behind them there was the portal they came from and also the way back.

The floor consisted of a simple dark gray stone, while the walls had a white color but where just as simple looking.

On one wall there was a weapon rack which held all kinds of weapon while on another there were some armor stands with different types of armor on them, ranging from light cloth robes to heavy metal plate armor.

"This is the training room. If you want to train, you should do it here, since you have everything you need here.", his mentor explained and then moved into the bigger room.

It was about 50 m long as well as wide and had a height of at least 20 m. The floor was the same gray stone as in the small room and the walls had the same color. Besides the entryway there was a panel like the ones in the subway.

Van Bergen saw him looking at the panel and gestured for him to move towards it.

"You can change the settings for this room here. It is quite amazing, since you can not only change the gravity to a.s.sist in training but you can also simulate all kinds of environments. Of course since it is only a F ranked room the options aren't as encompa.s.sing as for higher ranked rooms, but it will do."

He then pulled up and moved a slider. Suddenly Ivan felt his weight increase and he crashed to the floor.

His mentor ginned as he saw him, it really seemed like he enjoyed playing with him.

"From now on you will keep the gravity like this while training.", he then ordered.

Ivan laboriously picked himself up until he was at least standing, but he didn't even manage to straighten out his back. He then gave an angry glare at his mentor, which was completely ignored.

"First get used to this gravity until you are able to stand straight and move around. Then start running and don't stop for at least half an hour. If you fall down you will have to start again."

* f.u.c.k that s.a.d.i.s.t. This is just torture. *, Ivan thought even though he was aware that this kind of training should give great results.

His mentor turned around to leave but before he vanished through the portal he threw out a last sentence. "And don't even try to leave before finis.h.i.+ng the task, I will be watching you."

Ivan couldn't help himself from cursing out loudly. But since he had no choice he could only endure the gravity and try to stand straight.

After what felt like an eternity but was in reality only half a hour he was finally able to straighten out his back.

* Finally, I'm not level 1 anymore, even though level 2 isn't really better. * Ivan was quite happy about gaining his first stat point.

Motivated by the success he tried to move but only managed a few steps before falling down.

* d.a.m.n this s.a.d.i.s.t. *, he once again cursed his mentor for increasing the gravity by so much.

Once again he struggled his way up and started to move. This time he managed to get a bit further before falling down.

Four hours and five stat increases later he had finally managed to shuffle around for half an hour.

*Finally it has ended*, he though happily before shuffling towards the small room.

After entering the small room the gravity suddenly went back to normal and he felt so light he thought that if he jumped it would be a while until he came back down.

Still immersed in this feeling of lightness he failed to notice a brief flicker of silver light on his skin.

Then the rumbling of his stomach woke him up and he realized that he hadn't eaten anything since the meal at school.
